I’d like to contribute what i can to this sub, but not beeing able to post gif showcasing my things isn’t really helpful, any idea why it doesn’t work ?

    Not sure why, but can you convert to MP4 before uploading? MP4 seems to work fine.

      I’ve tried that too, doesn’t work…

      Now i’m starting to think it’s the file itself, but i tried to change the name, and it doesn’t work much more… Could it be in the metadata ?

        Seems unlikely, can you share the file some other way (dropbox or whatever) to me to try? It could also be instance specific?

            Limewire, what a blast from the past.

            Converted to mp4 and it works, but I wonder if the problem is file size? 11mb for the gif feels like it might be too big? Maybe try with a 9mb file, in case the limit is 10.

            I converted it to mp4, and it shrunk to 1.9mb and uploaded, so I’m not sure what the exact problem is.
